If we ever have programs that update the caches atomically, how would virtual triggers pass the list of new libraries to ldconfig?
Hmm, I don't get that. Why would you pass a list of libraries to ldconfig?
Probably for ldconfig doesn't matter so much since it's quite fast. But there are other cache update programs that aren't so fast*, and the classic answer to that is: "pass the list of new entries to the program so it doesn't needs to regenerate the *full* cache each time". * gtk-update-icon-cache takes 8 seconds on my machine to update the hicolor and oxygen themes caches. A program could install icons in even more themes... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
